    I havent really "played" it yet. I spent 20 minutes just throwing things at the cops and scanners so they would chase me. I didnt read up too much on steam. I hate programs that you have to download. Its easier to deal with a physical disk especially when you re-install Windows as often as I do.

    well, there was a nice guide on burning your "steam cache" of hl2 to a nice dvd somewhere, tho i cant remember where it was... that was what made it appealing. I hate the whole 5cd thing.... publishers give us just one dvd instead!!

    Heh, sounds like VUG doesn't think enough people in the US has a DVD-rom to release a DVD version.
    Quite the opposite of here in Europe where we can only get the DVD version...

    I wonder what else might be different between Europe, Uk (yes, the regular European version says "Not for distribution in the UK") and the US, as they seem to each get their own version of HL2 retail.
